Isn't "Why * sucks" copyrighted by CG? Of course he is kind enough to let the other CPians use it every now and then. * - Replace with anything e.g. Windows, WPF, Telstra etc.

Fortunately not - but only because he can't! (I found this on a copyright info site a while ago)
What isn't eligible
If a work is not tangible, copyright protection will not apply. This can lead to confusion, so here are a few categories not eligible for protection from copyright: 1. Works that are not fixed. For example, the statements made by experts at a round table discussion or a comedian's stage act. 2. Titles, names, short phrases, and slogans. These materials may be eligible for patent protection. 3. Ideas, procedures and methods.
"Why * sucks" is not fixed. "Why * sucks" is definately CG's slogan "Why * sucks" is very much CG 's main idea, and his main procedure!

That would automatically imply that Softwares and Algorithms are not copyright able and under certain light, it would also encompass downloadable software applications. Can you provide the original link please?

I can't remember the original link - it was some time ago, and I abstracted the bits I needed. I'll see if I can find any reference, but I don't hold out much hope. Software is copyrightable as a "literary work", (presumably since you can read it!) Methods and algorithms are not tangible, so they are not copyrightable - they may be patentable though.

write and publish a book (a real one, one that requires some trees to die for you), or write an article and get it published in print. That gives you copyright. :)
